A Personal Reminder
I am constantly changing
My mood swings as I age
And I do not fear aging
Like the moon I go through phases
Fought battles and ran through mazes
That shaped me into who I’m meant to be
A girl that needs no praise
My story is so deep like the sea
Borned a first generation kid
My path so unclear
I didn’t know where I fit in
Constantly thinking about the next year
Thinking “maybe one day this will be clear”
Because right now I am lost
Uncertain about my career
My family can’t pay for my costs
I don’t know it all
I learned there are things I cannot surpass
I learned how to get up when I fall
Learned pain will pass
Just like the good, the bad don’t last
So I shouldn’t overthink so much
Enjoy time now because time moves fast
But there's no need to rush
Today I woke up with a smile
The sun hits my eyes
Content with my long distance mile
Everything will be alright
